EDUonGo, Inc., a learning platform company powering innovative mobile and blended learning in the education, corporate, and government sectors, today announces a partnership with Tahseen Consulting. Under the agreement, Tahseen Consulting becomes the exclusive reseller of EDUonGo for several countries in the Arab World.

“We are extremely excited to find a partner like Tahseen Consulting to help us expand our offerings to the Arab World,” said Ridvan Aliu, CEO of EDUonGo. “Tahseen has excellent knowledge of the education market in the Arab region, and their vision for the future of education aligns extremely well with ours.”

“We reached out to more than 10,000 educators in 22 Arab countries in a survey last year and found that close to 85% of professors at higher education institutions in the region are not happy with their current learning management system”, said Walid Aradi, CEO of Tahseen Consulting. “While the Arab World’s youth want to control their own learning experiences through online learning, only 13% of educators in the region have adopted technology in the classroom to enable blended learning. This is substantially lower than other regions of the world. Many Arab education institutions can greatly benefit from the learning platform provided by EDUonGo.”

With the increased adoption of high-speed internet access and mobile devices in the Arab World, education institutions face the challenge of meeting the new expectations of learners who want engaging, interactive, and individualized learning experiences. Collaboration has become increasingly important in today’s learning environments. Students and teachers are demanding new ways to collaborate that makes the teaching and learning experience more effective, immediate, and personal in the classroom and beyond. Companies and government institutions have also realized the value of blended learning to facilitate onboarding, leadership development, and other technical training.

“We see a tremendous opportunity to not only replace existing learning management systems in the Arab region but to revolutionize the teaching and learning experience for educators, students, and corporate trainers with EDUonGo,” said Aliu. “Our unique collaboration features greatly enrich student and instructor relationships in ways that were never before possible.”

“EDUonGo’s learning platform is the best we have seen on the market,” said Aradi. “It is extremely easy to use and 100% cloud based which greatly reduces costs for education institutions and companies.”
